This was my second longboard, (my other is a big ol' sector 9 cloud 9 that I love dearly for cruising) and though I know there's a fair amount of distaste on hear for people who buy there boards in malls, I have to say that this mall bought beauty is probably the reason that I love longboarding as much as I do now. I've gotten so much better on it, gaining confidence at both downhill and sliding. The thing is clearly made for the park though, and that is where it is a pure beast. It's an excellent mini ramp board and pumps through transitions really smoothly. Overall, for the low price they ask for it, it's a great board that I look forward to riding for a long time to come.
It truly is a beautiful well made all around skateboard.
it's a magnificent carver with the right trucks. it doesn't pump or flex, but it'll keep up with your tightest hairpins. once on a whim, i strapped some randal dh's to it with no risers and took it down the biggest hill close to me and the thing shot like a bullet, no wobble 1 or 2 over 30mph. then i crashed hard at the bottom (slid out in a surprise gravel puddle) and it smashed into a brick mailbox. no chipping or de-lam. limped home though. though it does commute, it does halfpipe, it does carve, it's true calling is pool riding.
its my first and only board so far and i like it, its not the best ive ridden but its goo
This was my first board and I have had alot of different set ups on it. It has always perfomed good. It is a jack of all trades but a master of none. It was a great first deck because it allowed me to do a little of every thing. Doesn't get much use now that the quiver has expanded but I still can't part with it.

The Arbor Bamboo Hybrid 38" is a great board for cruising town. The extended kick tail is great for experimenting new tricks common to trick skating. Big guys really like this board because of the width and comfort of the deep concave pockets. Makes for added maneuverability in deep turns and rest assured that you will not fall out of the these foot pockets.
Arbor’s multi-dimensional long skate - the Hybrid was designed with a wide mid-section, concave profile, and rounded kick tail/nose to deliver both longboard stability and real flat-ground/park performance.
